Today's game will be played by the trio of Remember, Xiao Umbrella and Brother Snake as on-field commentators.
Facing the camera, the commentator remembers to warm up and say, "Good friends, welcome to watch the group stage match between EDG and SKT.
EDG's goal is to defend MSI at home and revive LPL glory, while SKT wants to avenge EDG and achieve the Grand Slam feat of the World Championship, Mid-Season Cup and regional league! No matter who wins this group match today, both the qualifying points and the team's morale will be
Great improvement!”
Brother Snake added, "Yes, you should have seen the performance of edg and skt in the group stage yesterday. They easily swept their opponents. Both teams are currently in a very hot state. It is hard to say who will win this game, but there is no doubt.
There is no doubt that I believe it will be a wonderful battle."
The guest next to me, Xiao Umbrella, scratched his pants that were a little too big. Before he could answer the call, the live broadcast camera had already switched to the BP interface.
Xiao Xian's explanation can still be heard in the background, "Hey! Without further ado, the game BP has already begun. The red team SKT has banned Big Mouth. This should be a hero that Deft has practiced a lot in the recent version."
I remember, "Edg took down Ryze. Mika Ryze seems to have mastered it. He played very well in the playoffs. I think he didn't want Faker to take over Ryze first. Hey, he banned Qian Jue in the second move..."
The commentators can't quite understand Edg's BP. Even though Ryze and Kindred are in their hero pool, they are so easily put into the ban box...
But in fact, Abramovich's BP is very simple. Ryze was banned because Faker had used it twice in the previous two group matches and performed well, and Kindred was banned because Blank had used Kindred in the first two group matches and set the pace.
This is only the group stage, and they don’t need to do in-depth routines. The most important thing is to explore the opponent’s hero pool and prepare for the bo5 in the knockout rounds. Therefore, BP first bans the heroes that the opponent often uses to test skt’s tactical reserves.
Before the commentator could think of an answer, skt banned Sivir and Ekko on the field, and edg banned Troll.
bp ended quickly.
It can be seen that skt is prepared, and their ban strategy is different from edg, or quite the opposite.
Here, edg bans the opponent's good heroes.
SKT only banned the heroes of Deft and Mouse, but left the mid laner Mika, who played the strongest role in EDG, alone. It neither banned her signature hero Enchantress, nor banned Dragon King, who performed well in the group stage.
Coach Abramovich analyzed, "SKT is giving unlimited trust to Faker, believing that he can defeat the heroes that Mika is good at head-on!"
Mixia nodded to express her understanding, "Well, this bp means that I am still not as strong as Faker."
The factory director thought that Mika was depressed for being slighted, so he quickly consoled him, "Mika, I absolutely believe that you are better than Faker. Didn't you kill him solo with a Murloc last year in the World Championship? You will choose Murloc this round."
, kill him alone again."
Mouse, as a die-hard supporter of Mika, also nodded, "Uncle Faker is too arrogant, he will definitely regret it! Mika is the strongest! Mika is the best!"
"Pfft..." Mixia laughed, "Don't brag me like that. Although I think so myself, at least I have to wait until I win the world championship. And I heard that Faker-senpai is very humble, so he will definitely not be so arrogant.
SKT's BP in this game should be guided by the coaching staff, just like Abramovich, testing the depth..."
As someone who has experienced the parallel world of SKT's Triple Crown, she only said these words because she knows Faker's character well.
But when my teammates heard it, it had a different meaning.
Mika was ignored by SKT to such an extent that she actually said good things for Faker and explained to SKT that she is too kind and simple!
It’s the hero selection stage.
SKT snatches Leopard Girl.
The commentator has already seen some clues about bp.
Xiao Umbrella said, "Wow! Mika, who was banned the most in the Spring Split and only lost a small game, was released by SKT! It's just that the game version has changed a lot, I don't know if it's possible for EDG
Take it first."
The commentator remembered, "Bobby the big tree, and the male gunner in the jungle position are all outside. I feel that the priority of Enchantress is not very high, and if it is the first hand to take the mid laner, Mika will also appear in the opening game of the Dragon King."
Still outside."
Mika's thoughts were similar to what she remembered. Since the mid laner released so many heroes, she was not in a hurry to choose.
So immediately after, edg grabbed the big tree and selected the bull head for the assistant.
SKT took Lucian and Tsar again, ADC was won by Bang in the last two games, and Faker's Tsar had the same purpose as theirs in this game - to select the most well-behaved hero, and test EDG after getting the assassin in the mid lane.
How strong is it?
Abu turned his head, which contained many small thoughts, and grinned, "Hey! Do you want Mika to take the Dragon King? The laning was pretty good in the clg game. Or to confuse Faker, let's choose Victor to face him.
brush!"
Meixia immediately shook her head.
The Tsar is actually the mage hero who can restrain the Dragon King the most. In the early stage, the sand soldiers suppress the push, and in the mid-term, they start a group to bully the Dragon King because of his short legs. In the later stage, he causes high damage.
In the opening game, Huhi, the Dragon King's unique skill brother, knew how to choose the Czar to counter the Dragon King. How could she choose the Dragon King to counter again - unless she was a cruel person.
As for using Victor to defeat the Tsar, during this whole MSI, did you see Victor appear?!
Abu has such a character, he likes to be clever, but he always picks up the sesame seeds and loses the watermelons.
"Coach, I want to take the enchantress!" Of course, Mixia had no interest in explaining. She opened her mouth and begged with watery eyes.
"That...that's okay. If you want to take the Enchantress, you should be confident! I, it's not like I didn't trust you just now, Mika!" Abu nodded quickly and explained.
"Well, I know that Coach Abu is worried about Mika, but I have to choose Enchantress in this round." Mixia replied.
She accepted the challenge set by faker!
edg selected the enchantress and the male gun.
Although it is an LPL foreign competition, there are not many fans of Faker in China. In addition, Mika's status as a Japanese aid means that he is indispensable.
The barrage went crazy for a while.
"Mika-chan has a ninety-nine winning rate and the enchantress has finally been chosen!"
"Well, Faker had a 100% winning rate before MSI last year. What's there to brag about with Mika's record..."
"Then, may I ask, which team did Faker lose to with a 100% winning rate?"
"If you lose, Morgana also loses to Pawn. What does it have to do with Mika? I just remind you that Mika shouldn't be too happy too early, or you may overturn."
"Han Chui is in a hurry, he is in a hurry!"
"Haha, Sakura-chan didn't get any results at all, so the filial son came out."
…
The BP on the court continues, and skt’s last two picks are Tahm and Poppy respectively.
The fifth choice of edg will then select ad mouse for deft to supplement the team battle output.
The entire bp ends.
The skt lineup includes top laner Poppy, jungler Leopard, mid laner Tsar, adc Lucian and support Tahm Kench.
The edg lineup consists of top laner Big Tree, jungler Lancer, mid laner Enchantress, adc Mouse and auxiliary Niutou.
